2012-2013 Random Trade Ideas thread

It gives the Lakers 'depth' and I think Millsap fits better with Dwight than Gasol.
We get to clear our log jam and we get to have Gasol, who I don't think is that bad. I'll be the first to admit he's soft, but I think his poor play the last 2 years is more because of the players around him and the offense than it is him getting worse.
Rockets get to try out if Jefferson fits with their team, and besides Royce White's potential upside, they aren't losing much.

Wow, that is quite the trade there. I give you mucho points for creativity here.
The only thing that sucks is losing the offense of both Millsap AND Jefferson, as well as taking on a 19 million dollar contract for the next two years. It does free up the logjam, but I would expect Corbin to start Gasol instead of Kanter.
Picking up Cook obviously adds more outside shooting, and that's always dangerous.
All in all, great random trade to start a thread :-)

Why Utah do it? No don't answer that.
Why Orlando do it? That's my unanswered question. Most probably for the expiring? What are they gonna do with the trade exception if not this?
Why Boston do it? They'll get 2 young future AS's for an AS.

Why Utah do it? No don't answer that.

Interesting thought, but you leave the Jazz with two bigs and Evans (who we all know is only good for dunking). If this was to go down then there would be another trade on the horizon.

You have to balls to say that when you pulled Alec after 16 minutes against LAC and Kanter got 19 minutes toinght?

One other thought, who is running point for Boston?

That one is much more realistic. The only team that might have an issue would be the Timberwolves.

Before anyone blows up at me remember that Jefferson and Millsap are getting more time than anyone else that is why they have such high PERs.

I donate them a first rounder. And we are talking about Kahn. I will give him a bag of chips.

Who is giving up the first rounder?

In no way would I want to see Al, Burks, and Kanter all go just for Rondo and Vuja..... whatever.

I'm just saying that we obtained a top 5 PG and were still able to keep most of our strengths in tact. At some point you have to start talking about the now and not the future.
